Unlike the blockbuster films and TV shows they star in, celebs unfortunately can't really prepare for awards ceremonies. Fortunately for us, it means the often drawn-out ceremonies (we're looking at you, the three and a half hour Grammy marathon) can sometimes produce the ultimate cringeworthy corkers that just about make up for the boredom. Here's some of the very best from this year:


1. When Rami Malek got snubbed by Nicole Kidman after she awarded him his best actor gong at the Golden Globes

2. When Jack Whitehall interviewed Little Mix at the Brits and it was all kinds of painful

3. When E! won the award for worst typo ever at the Golden Globes


4. When Javier Bardem was living his best life dancing to Queen and Adam Lambert at the Oscars

5. When Bradley Cooper had literally no idea how to respond when Giuliana Rancic told him A Star Is Born made her fall more in love with her husband on the Oscars red carpet

6. When Kanye West had zero interest being interviewed at the Met Gala

7. When Glenn Close was spotted making these amazing faces in the background at the Oscars

8. When this guy was desperate to steal the limelight from Normani during her red carpet interview at the MTV VMAs


9. When Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes completely forgot how to hug at the AMAs despite doing so much of it

10. When Sandra Oh called out Emma Stone for her Aloha role - and Emma handled it like a pro

11. When Ryan Seacrest and Rami Malek attempted a handshake/hug/high five at the Oscars

12. When Spike Lee was not really feeling Awkwafina's bantz at the Oscars
